Ce projet de recherche vise à mettre au point un outil numérique permettant de calculer les effets visqueux des systèmes des navires et des systèmes maritimes qui sont exploités en surface libre. Nous élaborerons une méthode de fixation du niveau permettant de capter la surface libre. Nous créerons différents modèles de la turbulence afin de […]

L¡¯objectif de ce stage est d¡¯¨¦laborer un mod¨¨le de fiabilit¨¦ de conception pour un pipeline de haute r¨¦sistance soumis ¨¤ des pressions internes, ¨¤ des forces axiales et ¨¤ des forces aux extr¨¦mit¨¦s dans des conditions de charge monotone. Les tuyaux faits d¡¯un mat¨¦riau d¡¯une limite ¨¦lastique minimale ¨¦gale ou sup¨¦rieure ¨¤ la cat¨¦gorie 550 […]

Nalcor Energy planifie actuellement un projet hydroélectrique dans le bas Churchill, d’un coût prévu de 6 à 9 milliards de dollars. Étant donné l’échelle (plus de 2 800 MW) et la durée de vie potentielle de ce projet, les effets des changements climatiques sur les ressources en eau du fleuve Churchill doivent être projetés. Ce […]

This project proposes an application of Fuzzy-Evolutionary Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) algorithm for autonomous navigation of mining robots in underground mines. This project aims to develop techniques that are useful for mining automation activities, particularly for infrastructureless navigation of load-haul-dump vehicles and drilling equipment. The intern will use current equipment facilities available with the […]

While the collapse of Atlantic cod is the most well-known and studied, other less studied species, such as redfish Sebastes spp., have experienced comparable declines. These declines have resulted in the closure of the Gulf of St. Lawrence, northern and eastern Grand Bank and Labrador Shelf redfish fisheries since the mid-1990s, while reduced quotas are […]

The Diavik Diamond Mine is located in Canada's remote North, 300 kilometres northeast of Yellowknife, NWT. In this project, the intern will collect and analyze samples of Kimberlite from the Diavik property to determine their physical properties. The data will then be carefully analyzed to look for trends regarding new information that could lead to […]

The objective of this research project is to develop a computer program to predict the responses of mooring lines in waves and current. The nonlinear line tensions and anchor loads will be computed. By integrating the computer program into a vessel motion analysis tool, the development allows for the coupled mooring line and vessel dynamics […]

Simulation training is widely used in the aircraft industry to train pilots to operate aircraft. Likewise, ship bridge simulators are used to train the crews of large vessels. The efficacy of this type of training is recognized by international standards and is often required by regulations. A new application of simulation training technology is being […]

The objective of the proposed project is to develop a mathematical model to compute the wave diffraction force on a floating structure partially frozen or surrounded by an ice sheet. The horizontal and vertical forces on the cylinder and bending stress in the ice plate will be computed. The results will be compared with those […]

The objective of the intern’s research is to develop a computer program based on a panel-free method to predict the second-order wave loads on floating offshore structures which are critical for coupled mooring analysis. Integration of the mooring analysis computer program with a second-order wave loading analysis tool will allow for the coupled mooring line […]

Verafin is an information technology company that specializes in customer intelligence solutions for small and midsize financial institutions. There is a high demand for automated fraud and money laundering detection and prevention systems since such activities cost millions to the financial industry every year. A key problem with detection techniques is the accurate and descriptive […]

The design of subsea infrastructure on the Grand Banks and, potentially, Labrador Sea must address the potential interaction with freely floating and gouging icebergs. Current practice is to protect the subsea infrastructure, such as conductors, wellheads and production trees, within massive excavations known as glory holes. For marginal fields or satellite wells, considerations of capital […]
